Abstract

The kick-off meeting for the Mission-relevant Information Management for Integrated Response (MIMIR) activity took place on 28 October 2016 at Dalhousie University Institute for Big Data Analytics. The meeting identified the need for navy-relevant scenarios to help guide MIMIR information research. As a result, DRDC – Atlantic Research Centre took an action item to describe MIMIR-relevant naval scenarios that would allow researchers to better understand work associated with MIMIR. The developed scenarios involve international smuggling, fisheries patrol, and an environmental emergency. Collectively, the scenarios describe a futuristic common information resource environment that exists in a distributed cloud infrastructure, where information products, models, etc. are treated in a common manner. The scenarios are intended to generate further discussion and help solidify research topics for the MIMIR participants.
